As per title!

I have recently gone through all sorts trying to get something sorted for some Corbeau LE Pro seats (the ones based on the Exige motorsport and VRX seats). Here is what I found. 

 

My aim was to use the harness bar I had with the seats and retain the parcel shelf. 

 

The S1 Exige driver subframe worked without issue for the driver side. The hole drilling for the seat was the correct spacing and the seat doesn't touch the harness bar while allowing enough rearward movement for me at 6ft 1.

 

The passenger seat would not work. In the end, I took the S1 Exige passenger subframe and removed the brackets (after first making a jig to ensure their spacing remained the same) and then transferred the bracket mountings to some new box section that I cut to the same size as the old. This allowed me to move the seat forward (2.5cm I think it was) to have OE fitment with the correct hole drilling. Got the brackets welded up locally and then painted. Looks completely OE. I was thinking of making another fixed one for the passenger side as I have a slight amount of play in the runners. I could easily fold the brackets to match the original; they're really basic it's just getting the hole drilling correct.

Have you asked podge if he can get them in?

I think Junks had some passenger side ones. Last I checked.

All sorted. S1 runners do the trick..
